I knew that I wasn't the strongest man that ever lived, or the most handsome or the most creative or the most intelligent, but I would say that I was the luckiest. After all that has been happening to me, I still stood my ground to progress. I didn't settle for depression even though I saw the cold soothing hand of sadness stretching out it's cradle for me to come undone and give up. I still stood strong, I passed through a night mare knowing that nightmares only haunt at night and when dawn comes a new light would shine upon and I would be better, I saw the light at the far end of the tunnel and I ceased everything to get to that light. Now I was at that light but there are other tunnels to cross and I can't dwell in this tunnel forever, even if I wanted to. Wasn't that was life was, tunnel upon tunnel upon tunnels. That was why there was light at day and darkness at night and it repeated itself. Over and over and over again. It was now normal and compulsory fo

His words ringing back to me.“I love you Ará, trust me, I do." My head was beside his chest and his hands were holding mine and mine was holding his arm. He had strong hands, I rubbed my palms up and down them. This was love, wasn't it. I felt safe with him, safer than I've ever felt. Eventually I slept off. I had one of those my lucid dreams. In my dream, I was walking, I didn't have a destination in mind but it seems like my body knew where to go. I was walking in the woods, it was surrounded by thick tall trees that had evergreen leaves. I could hardly see the sky from where I was, but then I looked ahead and saw a river and I decided to walk towards the river. The ground was smooth, it was surprising how smooth this forest ground was it made walking easier. As I was reaching the river bank, I could tell that the trees were getting fewer and I could now see the pink and orange sky. It was evening time, I could tell by the strong cool air and the soft

“I'm going to tell him myself." I announced.And then the room fell silent.Nobody talked, Lilly was quiet, so was Grace and Maurice and Ellanor and Gabrielle and Everly, even I. Josephine was laying on the bed, I hadn't seen her since. Josephine sometimes, acted like a ghost. She was very quiet and she was a peace maker. She would never try to steal someone's boyfriend.“Ará, that's the right thing to do. We could go together, the both of us, and if he gets angry I would talk to him for you, he's my friend, he might listen." Josephine said." Thank you Josephine. " I said.“I'm going with you too Ará, I love love and I like the both of you, you're so cute together, let's leave these girls, how about we go right now?." Everly said. “The supervisors are patrolling the halls and door ways now." Josephine said. I watched the other girls go to their beds because they were totally weak from the information. They knew that if I tell Darwinson myself, there was a chance he would fo

“Cassidy." I shouted. “Baby, come on, I thought you said you wanted to be back before one."“I'm coming, I'm looking for my Bermuda shorts." She shouted from upstairs.“Which one?."“There's just one." She shouted back.“Uh, the one I bought?." I asked.“Yeah."“I'm wearing the shorts babe."“But I wanted to wear them." She shouted.“Just put on something else and be down soon, or I'll change my mind about going."“You're such a kill joy." She shouted.“Babe, you know I'm not."“You are. I found another shorts." She said.“Nice. Be quick." I said going to get my hat from the couch and I put it on. I was sipping orange juice when I heard her say.“What the fuck are you wearing?." She asked. I turned to see her looking very gorgeous.“You look beautiful." I said to her.“Thank you. What are you wearing?."“What's wrong with what I'm wearing. Change the shirt, please and loose this farmer's hat."“I'm keeping the hat and I'm not changing the shirt, we're going for a hike, not for a fa

I was walking towards Hensley very swiftly. He had stopped, I could see them closer as I was going further but they could never see me. I was glad about it. And then I finally met them. I was just few feets away from them. I saw the shocked look on both Hensley's and the girl's face. I took off my shades, it had served it's purpose. I threw it on the ground. “No, this can't be possible." Hensley shouted.“No." He shouted again.“Hensley Campbell, we finally meet again. “" Darwinson, I'm sorry, please, I'm never going to do it again, please... Look, if you want... I'll give you back the money, you want it? I'll give it back to you, everything, every single penny I stole, please do not point that gun at me, Man. “ He said stuttering. “No, I don't want the money. I really don't want it, i'm a multi billionaire, remember, and I don't want to add your bloody money with mine. I'm just here to repay you, for all your sins. “" I didn't do anything to you man, It was your dad that
